Ok. I had no idea that we were on a roster to update this as Noelle suggested further down the page but here we go. After I finally received the invitation to join this site; my laptop breaking and then being fixed;after finishing work at Oxygen Cafe and CIT work I've "gotten around to it."
Today was the 106.3 interview in which we promoted out Youth Week Project "Scaling the Height of Freedom" (hehe i came up with that one). I think one of the girls gave the details further down the page but I'll just clarify those in bold easy-to-understand formatting:

A little Background on Scaling the Heights to Freedom:
Youth Week was a project Noelle and I (Kate/Katy) have been working on since January with the help of super wonderful awesome youth workers at Youth in the City.
We wanted to do something about the lack of services in the ACT for those suffering from an Eating Disorder as well as support for families and friends of the suffer (I really pushed this.)
The project just kept growing. I deigned a logo and it was manipulated into the posters you may have seen around places like ANU. We ended up holding a forum at the Legislative Assembly which was hosted by Jaqui Burke (spelling? sorry!) It was a great night and we had an incredibly positive response which spurred us on to make this bigger and better than the last event.
So come along and paint a message of hope on scales and send a message to the ACT goverment to do something about this problem. Come along and Share, Live , Shout & Unite! Together we can beat these illnesses!
